The Brokered Convention is a glorious fantasy for people who cover politics and know absolutely nothing about political history.

@DemocracyMattersALot The people calling for him to get out of the race are either stupid or Republican. But I repeat myself.

A president is now a dictator.

One who can murder at will to retain power. This, thanks to the illegitimate Supreme Court

"With fear for our democracy, I dissent."
Justice Sotomayor's scathing remarks:

“Let the President violate the law, let him exploit the trappings of his office for personal gain, let him use his official power for evil ends. Because if he knew that he may one day face liability for breaking the law, he might not be as bold and fearless as we would like him to be. That is the majority’s message today. Even if these nightmare scenarios never play out, and I pray they never do, the damage has been done. The relationship between the President and the people he serves has shifted irrevocably. In every use of official power, the President is now a king above the law… “Orders the Navy’s Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival? Immune. Organizes a military coup to hold onto power? Immune. Takes a bribe in exchange for a pardon? Immune. Immune, immune, immune.”
